An initial setup method (100) stores recovery tools (400) and a further setup script (402) on a computer (1000) which has an operating system (302) that need not have any recovery capabilities. At the user site, a further setup method (700, 800) reserves (706) a container space (500) in the file system space (304), creates (716) an image (1008) of the main partition (300), and stores (720) the image in the container. If the partition is corrupted later, the computer can still be booted using virtual boot tools (602), the image can be retrieved (914) from the container even though the partition around it was lost, and the image can then be deployed onto disk (200) over the corrupted partition, thereby restoring a working partition to the computer. This can be done without secondary media such as a recovery CD or floppy, and without a network connection.

The disclosure relates to a pump dispenser and a method of assembly of such a dispenser, in which the container interior reduces its volume progressively as product is dispensed to avoid air contact with the product. One aim is to prevent any air in the container space above the product from reaching the pump inlet, and thereby possibly reducing a dispensed dose without the user being aware. To trap any such air and keep it away from the inlet throughout use of the dispenser, an air trap member (5) having a downwardly-convex dish form is provided below the floor of the dispenser module around the inlet, to guide any such air away from the inlet and to the periphery. At the periphery a steeply-sloping peripheral portion forms a retaining lip (53), which may make flexible wiping contact with the container wall interior, allowing air past on assembly of the dispenser. A central tubular formation (52) of the trap member (5) separates the trapped air from the inlet, and can be used to plug the trap member into the inlet. A sliding follower piston (15) may have an upward central boss (152) shaped to fit into the tubular formation (52) of the trap member (5) to maximise expulsion of product.
